I have a properties file, called xxx.properties in the first search directory listed in PATH.
However, when I call ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream("xxx.properties") I get a NULL.
Can someone explain to me why?
Thanks a lot!

Are you sure you've set your CLASSPATH list to the correct values? (PATH doesn't mean anything much to a JVM).
kind regards

Is it possible at all to get the PATH, not the CLASSPATH, into a string?
Thanks a lot.
